Presented By: Martin Price, PhD

Event: ECHO International Agriculture Conference 2018 (13-11-2018)

In 1981 ECHO International started with two employees and some volunteers on 5 acres we didn’t own. Today our 55-acre campus in Florida (no debt) has expanded into a global network, including Regional Impact Centers serving Latin America & the Caribbean, West Africa, East Africa, and Asia. There are almost 80 paid employees plus hundreds of regional volunteers here and world-wide. Conferences and workshops take place regularly at the US hub and in each impact region. My talk will emphasize some key factors that contributed to ECHO’s vision and subsequent growth. Most likely some in our audience are thinking of starting or growing an organization or seeking to becoming more effective. Some of these may be helpful in your personal and corporate growth.
